Comprehensive and Realistic Advice
Marjorie Sher's commitment to each client is to provide comprehensive and realistic advice to the client so that they are able to make decisions that are emotionally, financially and legally sound decisions. Marjorie believes that knowledge is empowerment; and therefore, she will do everything in her power to see that each client is fully informed, as to both the law and the effects of the law to each individual issue.
She prides herself in making every effort to maintain close communication with each client, so that each one will be prepared for the difficult choices they will certainly face in any family law matter.
The attorney you choose can be one of the most important decisions that you make in a family law case. Issues of custody, support, property division and things of that nature are issues that can change your life in the future.
Therefore, you should choose an attorney who practices primarily family law, one who has the experience and knowledge of the law to present to you so that you will be able to make the decisions that are in your best interest. Marjorie Sher is just that person.
Marjorie Sher is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison (1990) and subsequently continued her education at Kent College of Law located in Chicago, where she graduated in 1993. Marjorie immediately began to practice law in Lake County, Illinois after graduation and began concentrating primarily in family law during 1996.
Her professional career includes additional legal services including , but not limited to the following: Board Member, Vice President and subsequent President of the Association of Women Attorney's of Lake County; Secretary of the Lake County Bar Association; presenter of seminars related to family law to the Family Law Committee, Real Estate Committee and People's Law School; Mock Trial Judge; Teen Court Judge; Co-Chair of the Legal Aid Committee and Co-Chair of the Campaign for Legal Services.
Marjorie has a commitment to family law that is found in very few attorneys. She reads legal journals, attends continuing legal education classes on a regular basis, and volunteers her time and expertise to the community in family law related matters.
Marjorie is proud of the client relationships which she has established. Most of her clients are referrals from other satisfied clients and their friends, relatives and business associates.
The Law Office of Marjorie Sher is conveniently located less than a block west from the Lake County Courthouse. There is no fee for an initial consultation in most cases, therefore, contact Marjorie today to schedule an appointment. You will not be disappointed.
